It keeps a saved pointer to the environment it last used, so it can pick that environment up again. Three things have changed:\n\n- Reuse check: on startup, Claude Code reads the pointer together with the machine and account it was written for. If the pointer is for another folder or another machine, Claude Code sets up a fresh environment instead.\n\n- Keep-alive: when the connection fails, Claude Code keeps retrying while a tool is still running instead of giving up after the usual timeout.\n\n- Shutdown: writing the pointer during shutdown now has a time limit.\n\nBefore, the pointer was reused unless the process that wrote it was still running.\n\n**Why**\n\nRemote Control no longer reuses an out-of-date environment from another folder or machine, and no longer drops the connection while a tool is still working.\n\n- Flag `tengu_bridge_requires_action_details`: On for this account, and not off by default (read for one account on one subscription tier against v2.1.323; this account: on, anonymous baseline: on, compiled default: on) These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.\n- Area: Remote Control\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
